I?m not so good at pure watercolour so I started adding ink and became a ?line and wash? painter. I like to paint ?plein air? in the summer and work from photos in winter. I?m English, I?ve been in Ireland three and a half years, and have started painting scenes near my home in Malahide. Last year I was seriously ill, but now I?m recovering and looking forward to getting out with my paints again. I love painting quirky buildings - there?s nothing as nice as a good gable end.

I had been painting for about 3 months, watching tutorials on uou tube, practicing different techniques. I was feeling confident. I had a blank sheet and some inspirational pictures around me and started to build a picture. Once the flow came it was like a wave, not stopping until I wad happy, finishing it off with the bee in the flower. I love bees. Felt overjoyed at my achievement in this piece.
